Carolina Panthers rumored to be listening to offers for Christian McCaffrey

Who's going to make a play for his services? Will he remain an injury-prone RB for the remainder of his career?

1. I thought it was a mistake to use him as an every down RB

At a minimum he should split the load like Kamara. You could still have him on the field split out as a receiver on other downs.

It is like blunting a sword having him take the punishment of 20 runs a game.

2. There's no question

that his body has absorbed excessive abuse over the past three seasons. Hopefully he hasn't been "used up" at age 25, as crazy as that may sound (although he'll be 26 when he takes the field next season).

3. Too bad. He's a talented back. Some players are more injury-prone...

for some reason. I'd put him in the slot where he doesn't get the pounding of an every down back and use him like the Patriots use their slot receivers. From that position short passes could be like long hand-offs to free him up in space where he can use his running back elusiveness.

4. He has at most 5 effective years left

He’s a helluva player but RB’s are mostly done at 30.

5. The Seahawks are always in the market

for injury prone running backs. Have had three on the payroll for three years.
